-- I'll confess I can't help but giggle at Sylus' song, the lyrics are extremely funny to me and it breaks immersion a bit.
Admittedly, I have the same reaction with any j/c/kpop song that leans too much into "oh I so cool I so boss mmmh so power" I blame the writers for that.
-- Musically wise, Xavier's is probably the one that I find more pleasant to listen to, but all of them have their little section of "fuck now it's stuck in my head."
-- The half tango SylusMC had going with a few poses was so good! And I love her red outfit. My only problem with his dance scene specifically is that his body is too long/tall for some of the movements he pulls, and that makes the arms look odd to me when they're stretched above his head. Zayne and Caleb (who are also very tall) avoid this visual "bug" by keeping the arms lower almost the entire time. I know it doesn't have much to do with the choreo itself nor the music or the duet, but whenever I see those shoulders rotate as the arms go up I'm violently thrown back to the hours spent in blender as I watch my sim rig gallop its way into uncanny valley territory. I might get over it in a few replays though.
-- Agreed on the poses. But I need to mention Xavier who gets pinned against the wall as MC kneels behind him to kiss his hip. Plus those heavy body rolls he does on her (on the floor, too) during the choreo.
P.S. If I had a nickel for every single time Zayne has smirked as he looked down at MC I would have more than 1 nickel, which says a lot, yeah.
P.P.S. Do not remind me of that music video, I think a few thousand views are from me alone spread across the performance video and the choreo practice one.
Time to read the lyrics for the lads' songs!
